A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers (制造商) to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream—as well as for developing over 75 flavors (口味).Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No—there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting acareer in this “cool” field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains: “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir (搅拌) it, creating ice-cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himse lf, “Dose the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy---working at one cool job.46. What is John Harrison’s job?A. An official.B. An ice-cream taster.C. A chemist.D. An ice-cream manufacturer.47. According to John Harrison, to be qualified（合格的）in the “cool field”, it is helpful t o ________.A. keep a diary of workB. have a degree in related subjectsC. have new ideas every dayD. find out new flavor each day48. What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?A. He stirs the ice cream.B. He examines the color of the ice cream.C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D. He lets the ice cream warm up.49. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A. Tasting with EyesB. Flavors of Ice CreamC. John Harrison’s LifeD. One Cool JobBThe World Health Organization (WHO) planned to study the relationship between the eating habits of the people and the disease. Two doctors were chosen to make the study. They flew to Africa south of the Sahara and during the next two months visited ten countries. They found that serious diseases of poor eating, often mistaken for other diseases, existed in all parts of Africa. The diseases were similar and could therefore all be named kwashiorkor. The diseased children are usually from one to four years old. As the illness progresses, the child’s stomach bees swollen by liquid collecting in the body. The skin changes color and may break out in open sores（疼痛）. The hair changes color and starts to fall out. The patient loses all interest in his surroundings and even in food, and bees so weak that he wants to lie down all the time. Stomach liquids are no longer produced.The doctors reasoned that kwashiorkor was found in the young children of this age in many parts of Africa because of lack of milk or meat. Their mothers, after stopping their breastfeeding, gave them foods full of starches（淀粉）instead of greatly needed proteins. They found that the addition of milk to the food of the children suffering from kwashiorkor saved many lives.The unbelievable thing about kwashiorkor is that the very existence of the disease—whichhas been killing thousands of children for centuries—was not even recognized in Latin America as recently as ten years ago. The deaths of those children were mistakenly listed as due to other diseases. It was the WHO’s work in Africa that led to the discovery of the problem in Central America.50. From the passage we learn that kwashiorkor is a disease caused by __________ .A. poor living conditionsB. lack of proteins in foodC. breastfeedingD. lack of food51. It is difficult to discover kwashiorkor because ____________________ .A. it has no symptoms at allB. it is hard to identify signs of itC. i t doesn’t last long enough for careful observationD. it is hardly different from other diseases52. What is mentioned as a simple but reasonable way of curing this disease?A. Taking a special medicine.B. Avoiding any food containing starch.C. Having more meat or milk.D. Taking medicine full of proteins.53. What’s the best title for the article?A. Milk and Meat Are Daily NecessitiesB. Kwashiorkor and Improper Eating HabitsC. A New Form of Illness in Africa and Latin AmericaD. A Case of Eating HabitsCTim Burton attempts to work his gothic magic over one of the best loved stories of all time—Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There.Alice, now 19, attends a party at a Victorian estate, only to find she is about to be proposed to by a rich suitor（求婚者）in front of hundreds of snooty（傲慢的）society types. She runs off, following a white rabbit into a hole and ending up in Wonderland—a place she visited many years before, yet she doesn’t reme mber. The white rabbit claims to have e back for Alice because she is the only one who can slay（杀死)the Jabberwock, the beast who guards the Red Queen’s empire. Alice remains pletely unaware of why she is in Wonderland, and is confused about the fact that she had once visited Wonderland years before.Now, Wonderland has changed into a dark, scarier place than it used to be. Alice then embarks on an adventure of self discovery, and to save Wonderland from the Red Queen’s reign（统治）of terror with the help of her Wonderland friends.54.

This passage would most likely to be found __________.A. on a film posterB. in a government documentC. in a novelD. in an entertainment magazineDThe Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) is a love story, a sad and beautiful one. If it didn’t exist, we would easily imagine that the story of its construction was simply a fairy tale. Three hundred years ago, there lived an Indian emperor called Shah Jahan. His wife was a beautiful and bright woman whom he loved greatly. Her title was Mumtazl Mahal: its shortened form Taj Mahal, means “pride of t he palace”. In the year 1630 this beloved wife of the emperor died. He was so brokenhearted that he thought of giving up his throne. He decided out of his love for his wife, to build her the most beautiful tomb that had ever been seen.He summoned the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was plete. It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 meters square and 6-7 meters high. Towers rise from each of the four corners. The Mahal itself soars another 61 meters into the air. It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge. However, his son put him into a prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across the river at the tomb of his beloved wife.58.
